Anyone following the news will no doubt have noticed high-profile data leaks hitting the headlines daily, exposing everything from compromised healthcare records to online dating info. The fact that so many breaches are continuing to occur — with pace of these compromises seeming to increase as time goes on — highlights the fact that old-school, rules-based SIEM tools are no longer up to the task, and that more advanced data science is needed to pinpoint today’s advanced threats. Recent studies indicate that the lag time before a breach is discovered can be months or years, and that reducing the time from compromise to detection is essential to minimizing not only the financial repercussions of a cyber attack, but also the hit to an enterprise’s reputation.
